So, unfortunately weather and being old have so far not allowed me to take the bike out for spin. Injured my shoulder at work and have also spent some time with the kids. The weekends I could've rode, the track was closed from rain.

I did get some time to install some new graphics and I'm currently working on the seat cover. I got the cover from Enjoy along with their new seat foam. It's pretty crazy how light it is, but also seems just as durable. I've got a little bit of work to get it tight. I've got LUXON engine mounts installed and have ASV levers I'm going to hopefully get installed with the rest of the plastics tomorrow. Just making it bling worthy.

If anyone other Ducati owners see this please let me know how/where to install the power-on wiring module. I bought it with the bike, but it doesn't have instructions. I can't see where to plug it in. This is my first bike with an ECU if that says anything.

I also know the chrome graphics aren't for everyone, but I like the look and that's all that matters!

Got the first ride in today. So much fun. I’m slow and suck at riding; keep that in mind. Track was pretty much all table tops which I wanted. I’m 48 and have a replaced knee for perspective. Absolutely love the bike. IMG 6141 0
